What's Included
- A two-hour, instructor-led wood-burning class
- A wooden cheeseboard for every guest to decorate and take home
- All materials and wood-burning tools
- Guidance on composing your design

How the Class Works
The instructor guides the group through the wood-burning process from start to finish. Guests learn a few drawing techniques, compose a design for their board with the instructor's help, then transfer the idea onto the wood as a burned illustration. The finished board works for serving food or as a cutting board, so guests go home with something they can use the next time they host.
